A few moments and they are expected to unveil the exact text of proposals articles of impeachment those would still have to be approved by the fall house is something that could take place in the coming days and we have our White House Correspondent kimberly hocket who is standing by for us also with us. On capitol hill in washington heidi we start with you how do we expect this to play out. Fully there is a caution that these articles are not yet finalized will see them veiled in the minutes that come but the reports are to expect 2 articles of impeachment to be read they will be abuse of power saying on allegations that trump put his own political interests above that of the country when he asked for investigations into his political opponents and the 2nd article of impeachment likely to be obstruction of Congress Based on the president s efforts to not cooperate with impeachment investigators refusing to allow members of his staff to testify and refusing to hand over documents now the fact that the the likelihood that that will be seen these 2 articles of impeachment is important in that its a satisfaction of the moderate wing of the Democratic Party members of the house who are hesitant to make this impeachment seem like its wider that they dont want to play into the republicans argument that democrats are trying to throw anything they can at trying to see what sticks in order to try to remove him from Office Rather focusing on these 2 ukraine specific articles of impeachment in the thought of these moderate democrats is a way to make this focused and quick and play to the Public Opinion while the public is focused on this ukrainian issue the other possibility its unlikely though is that theyre the base of the democrats in the more liberal wing have been pushing for a 3rd article possibly an obstruction of justice which would reach back to the russia investigation we saw from the special counsel Robert Muller in which he detailed episodes in which trump try to obstruct justice as he was investigating possible russia collusion with Trumps Campaign of course trump was cleared of that charge so again were expecting 2 articles of impeachment to be announced this more. Going in this historic day for trying to become only the 4th u. S. President to ever have articles of impeachment drafted against him and heidi the Reuters News Agency saying that the House Judiciary Committee is aiming to vote on these articles of impeachment against President Trump no later than thursday so things quite moving quite quickly it seems yes indeed and in fact reports are that there was there were of course we had our 9 hour long hearing yesterday before the House Judiciary Committee and then reports are its Staff Members continue working overnight or in the Morning Hours in the United States for these articles that have been worked on up until the last minute to be unveiled in only a few moments time and if indeed that is the case then on thursday according to reports is when this committee would then pass these articles out of the committee in order for the full house to have a vote next week which would then set up the impeachment trial of President Trump to begin in the senate in the new year and thank you for the moment. On capitol hill for us lets cross to our other correspondent in washington d. C. White house correspondent kimberly what has been the reaction so far from the republicans and the president. Theyve always maintained that the president has committed no wrongdoing essentially their strategy has been though to talk about process versus facts in many cases and when confronted with facts basically saying get over it the president for his part has also been in the last hour touting the successes of his presidency that he sees as a highlight in fact if we could throw up the graphic here to peach a president who has proven through results including producing perhaps the strongest economy in our countrys history to have one of the most successful presidencies ever and most importantly who has done nothing wrong is sheer political madness so essentially the president does have a point in all of this he is presiding over the strongest economy in decades and also the irony in all of this is that on the same day that theres going to be this announcement of the potential charges to remove President Trump from office the democrats in the house of representatives may also be handing him one of his biggest legislative victories in terms of a Campaign Promise and thats an announcement that theyve worked out a deal on the u. S. M. C. A. A trade agreement that he really sort of pinned as a signature in terms of trying to get elected improving ordinary workers lives so this is the challenge for the democrats moving forward because one hand theyre saying the president has committed wrongdoing this is a precedent we dont want to see repeated lets make sure that we put this into the history books even knowing that the president may not be removed from office in the senate but at the same time having some difficulty because republicans on the other hand keep pointing to the Strong Economy which really resonates with the ordinary voter that is watching all of this play out on capitol hill. As we continue to speak. We are starting to see some movement there on capitol hill the chairs of those committees. To speak to the media and present. Their findings and also present what they think president should be. Charge waves in this impeachment investigate an investigation lets listen 1st to nancy pelosi lit the house speaker. On the sound day and i recall that the 1st order of business for members of congress is the solemn asked to take an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States has Great Respect and gratitude that i thank the chairs of the committees the 6 committees who have been working to help us honor our oath of office also want to thank the staff of those committees and the Committee Members for all of their work over this period of time to help us protect and defend. I want to thank the chairman of the committee mr nadler chair of the Intelligence Committee. Mr sheriff chair of the ways and means committee. Chairman all of these tim tim and richie neal of massachusetts the chair the point here is Committee Eliot Engel of new york the chair of the Financial Services committee next seen waters of california the chair of the committee on government reform and oversight congresswoman Carolyn Maloney. I also want to acknowledge the important work that was done by idea and departed may rest in peace a life coming as chair of the committee of the Oversight Committee now pleased to yield to distinguish chair of the Judiciary Committee mr knapp and. Thank you madam speaker. Over the last several months the investigative committees of the house have been engaged in an impeachment inquiry into president Donald Trumps efforts to solicit foreign interference in the 2020 elections efforts that compromise our National Security and threaten the integrity of our elections throughout this inquiry he has attempted to conceal the evidence from congress and from the American People our president holds the ultimate public trust when he betrays that trust and puts himself before country endangers the constitution he endangers our democracy and the endangers our National Security. The framers of the constitution prescribe it a clear remedy for president s who so violate their oath of office that is the power of impeachment today in service to our duty to the constitution and to our country the House Committee on the judiciary is introducing 2 articles of impeachment charging the president of the United States donald j. Trump with committing high crimes and misdemeanors the 1st article is for abuse of power it is an Impeachable Offense for the president to exercise the powers of his Public Office to obtain an improper personal benefit while ignoring or in injuring the National Interest that is exactly what president did when he solicited and pressured ukraine to interfere in our 2020 president ial election thus damaging our National Security undermining the integrity of the next election and violating his oath to the American People these actions moreover are consistent with President Trumps previous invitations of foreign interference in our 2016 president ial election and when he was caught when the house investigated and opened an impeachment inquiry president tripping gauged in unprecedented categorical and indiscriminate defiance of the impeachment inquiry this gives rise to the 2nd article of impeachment for obstruction of congress here too we see a familiar pattern in President Trumps misconduct. A president who declares himself above accountability above the American People and above congresss power of impeachment which is meant to protect against threats to our Democratic Institutions is a president who sees himself as above the law we must be clear no one not even the president is above the law i want to recognize the great contributions of the investigative chairs particularly Intelligence Committee chairman adam schiff Foreign Affairs chairman eliot engel committee on oversight reforms former chairmen the late a larger cummings and his new chairwoman Carolyn MaloneyFinancial Services chairwoman Maxine Waters and ways and means chairman richard neo who helped lay the foundation for the articles we are introducing today i also want to thank my Judiciary Committee colleagues who are critical in our work to hold the president accountable and in the drafting of these articles later this week the Judiciary Committee will meet to consider these articles of impeachment and to make a recommendation to the full house of representatives we do not take this action lightly but we have taken an oath to defend the constitution and im like President Trump we understand that our duty 1st and foremost is to protect the constitution and to protect the interests of the American People that is why we must take this solemn step today. Elections are the cornerstone of democracy in a foundational to the rule of law but the integrity of our next election is at risk from a president who has already sought foreign interference in 820162020 elections and who consistently puts himself above country that is why we must act now i want to turn now to chairmanship who explain the evidence that supports these articles and the need for us to act with such urgency today. Thank you mr chairman thank you madam speaker and to my colleagues good morning. The framers of the constitution recognized that some day a president might come to office who would abuse that office betray the public trust and undermine National Security to secure foreign help in his reelection and who would seek to abrogate the power of congress to hold him accountable they recognize this danger and they prescribe a remedy and that remedy is impeachment it is an extraordinary remedy and one that ive been rather reluctant to recommend until the actions of President TrumpGave Congress no alternative we stand here today because the president s continuing abuse of his power has left us no choice to do nothing would make ourselves complicit in the president s abuse of his i office the public trust and our National Security the president s misconduct is as simple and as terrible as this President Trump solicited a foreign nation ukraine to publicly announce investigations into his opponent and a baseless Conspiracy Theory promoted by russia to help his reelection campaign. President trump abuse the power of his office by conditioning 2 official acts to get ukraine to help israel action the release of hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid that nation desperately needed and a white house meeting with an ally trying to fend off russian aggression in so doing he undermined our National Security and jeopardized the integrity of our next election and he does so still the evidence of the president s misconduct is overwhelming and uncontested and how could it not be when the president s own words on july 25th i would like you to do us a favor though ladies so bare his intentions his willingness to sacrifice the National Security for his own personal interests and when the president got caught he committed his 2nd impeachable act obstruction of congress of the very ability to make sure that no one is above the law not even the president of the United States the evidence is every bit as strong that president term has obstructed congress fully without president and without basis in law if allowed to stand it would decimate congresss ability to conduct oversight of this president or any other in the future leaving this president and those who followed to be free to be as corrupt malfeasance or incompetent as they would like with no prospect of discovery or accountability now some would argue why dont you just wait why dont you just wait until you get these witnesses the white house refuses to produce why dont you just wait until you get the documents the white house refuses to turn over. And people should understand what that argument really means it has taken us 8 months to get a Lower Court Ruling that donegan has no absolute right to defy congress 8 months for one Court Decision if it takes us another 8 months to get a 2nd court or maybe a supreme Court Decision people need to understand that is not the end of the process it comes back to us and we ask questions because he no longer has absolute immunity and then he claims Something Else that his answers are privileged and we have to go to back to court for another 8 or 16 months the argument why dont you just wait amounts to this. Why dont you just let him cheat in one more election why not let him cheat just one more time why not let him have 4 and help just one more time that is what that argument amounts to the president s misconduct goes to the heart of whether we can conduct a free and Fair Election in 2020 it is bad enough for a candidate to invite for interference in our political process but it is far more corrosive for a president to do so and to abuse his power to make it so despite everything we have uncovered the president s misconduct continues to this day.
